The main causes of low amniotic fluid are fetal malformations, abnormal placental function, amniotic membrane lesions, etc. When the amniotic fluid flow is less than 300ml, it is called oligohydramnios. The amniotic fluid of pregnant women is the liquid in the amniotic cavity. In the early stages of pregnancy, it mainly comes from the maternal serum protein entering the amniotic cavity through the dialysate of the embryo. In the late pregnancy, the amniotic fluid of pregnant women mainly comes from the fetus. of pee. During the entire pregnancy process, the amniotic fluid of pregnant women is an essential component to keep the fetus alive. Low amniotic fluid is mainly related to the following reasons. ① Pregnant mother factors: Pregnant women have diarrhea and dehydration caused by eating too little, and pregnant mothers take certain drugs such as diuretics orally; ② Fetal malformations: Congenital genitourinary system malformations are more common, such as renal defects, urethral tubes or urethral openings Infarction etc. ③ Placental function abnormalities: such as partial embryonic abruption; ④ amniotic membrane lesions; ⑤ placental abruption: the rate of exposure of amniotic fluid in pregnant women exceeds the rate of amniotic fluid formation in pregnant women, resulting in less amniotic fluid.
The harm of low amniotic fluid: Low amniotic fluid is very harmful to the fetus, especially within 26 weeks, it will seriously affect the growth and development of the fetal lungs, and can cause fetal lung consolidation; amniotic fluid Low amniotic fluid may cause intrauterine hypoxia or even fetal death; low amniotic fluid may cause fetal compression syndrome. Due to insufficient amniotic fluid flow, the fetus will be tightly wrapped in the uterus, causing its body to collapse. It cannot be stretched, which will cause abnormal force on the body. If low amniotic fluid causes fetal malformations, it is necessary to adopt the strategy of induction surgery; if low amniotic fluid does not cause fetal malformations, it is recommended to take certain effective measures for treatment immediately. If low amniotic fluid occurs within 26 weeks of pregnancy, it will harm the growth and development of the fetal lungs, such as fetal lung consolidation.
When pregnant women have less amniotic fluid, it will cause intrauterine hypoxia, and in severe cases, it will cause fetal death. Low amniotic fluid may also lead to compression syndrome in the fetus. This may be because the pregnant woman has less amniotic fluid and the baby's body cannot flex or stretch, which may cause deformities in the body's stress and may also lead to fetal development malformations or abnormalities. Growth and development are restricted. During normal delivery, the amniotic fluid of pregnant women has the function of moisturizing the birth portal and caching. When the amniotic fluid is low, the rate of expansion of the uterine orifice will be slowed down. Low amniotic fluid has many consequences. When the amniotic fluid is low, the cause must be found and the pregnancy terminated if necessary.
The mother's amniotic fluid breaks in the early stage, the baby's growth and development is delayed or too mature, the placental function is abnormal, and the baby has other abnormalities, etc., which can also cause low amniotic fluid. However, because the amniotic fluid of pregnant women is in the mother's belly, there is no way to actually measure it accurately. Therefore, mothers must not be lazy and must conduct regular physical examinations on time and let doctors use professional methods to give us professional advice. In addition to having regular prenatal check-ups during pregnancy, you can also download G exercises at home to do pelvic floor muscle exercises, and use professional APP to guide the exercises, which is beneficial to assisting production, shortening the delivery process, and is also more conducive to postpartum repair and prevention. To prevent problems such as postpartum urinary leakage, prolapse, and bulging, it is strongly recommended that pregnant mothers exercise moderately during pregnancy.
